The claimant sought entitlement to medical benefits. The insurer, after receipt of the application to the LAT, arranged for an IE. The claimant objected and the Tribunal at a preliminary issue hearing determined that the IE was reasonable and could go forward. The Tribunal would adjourn the hearing on the merits to allow for the IE to be completed. The claimant sought reconsideration of this decision. However, Executive Chair Linda Lamoureux held that the Tribunal did not err. The Tribunal decision was affirmed and the claimant was afforded a further adjournment to attend the IE and then proceed to a hearing.
